1. KC1: Concept of skill and skilled performance
KF1: How skills are performed through an information processing model
KF2: How skills are performed for effective, consistent performance. Understanding of classification of skills
KF3: Use of model performance
KC2: Skill/Technique Improvement through Movement Analysis
KF1: The purposes of collecting relevant and detailed information about performance.
KF2: Creation of plan using information collected about performance
KF3: Reviewing & monitoring improvements made through relevant training program
KC3: The development of Skill & Refinement of technique
KF1: stages of learning, methods of practice, principles of effective practice
KF1: influential factors that affect performance; motivation, concentration & feedback
KF2: How skills are learned and require refinement of technique through practice.

3. KF1: The purposes of collecting relevant and detailed
KF1: The purposes of collecting relevant and detailed information about performance
There are two stages when analysing performance:
Collect general data from a ‘match’ (full performance) situation, to highlight where in your performance the problem(s) lie. (WHAT?)
Adopt one of the following methods of analysis to collect specific data, which can be used to establish the cause of the problem(s). (WHY?)

4. KF1: The purposes of collecting relevant and detailed
KF1: The purposes of collecting relevant and detailed information about performance
In order to identify strengths and weaknesses within a game of badminton we use a Stroke Analysis sheet. This is known as initial data. (Why?)
In order to identify specific strengths and weaknesses within an individual technique we use a an observation schedule (movement analysis).
Our technique is compared to that of a model performer
Also you will be able to see where shots are played from and where they land using a scatter diagram. These are known as types of focused data. (Why?)

5. Stroke Analysis Sheet (Initial data)
KF1: The purposes of collecting relevant and detailed information about performance
Stroke Analysis Sheet (Initial data)
Gives a breakdown of different shots.
Establishes strengths and weaknesses within the whole game.
Re-use within your training programme.

6. Movement Analysis Benefits of Using an Observation Schedule
Gives detailed information about a particular stroke
Identifies Strengths & Weaknesses of a skill
Pinpoints specifically where weaknesses lies
Practice programme can be designed from the information received
You can use an observation schedule at the beginning, during and at the end of a training block to see if your technique has improved

7. Appropriateness of Data Collection
Video: permanent record, which allows you to see your technique
Valid, reliable and easy to complete
Data gathered has highlighted how effective your strokes are
Strengths and weaknesses and the shots you played most, how consistent your shots were and what shots won you points
Highlights if you have a good range of shots (varied shot making)
Highlights which part of the skill is good and which parts are not.
Good source of positive feedback
Gives a good indication of what stage of learning you are at. (Cognitive, Associate and Autonomous)
Knowledge of consistency, it will highlight how effective you are in pressure situations (movement could be an issue)
You are able to tell if it is either your P.A.R that is the weakness.

8. Choose a skill and describe the method of analysis you used to identify this skill or technique as a strength in your performance. (4)
Explain why you consider this method to be appropriate. (2)

9. Devise practices for the appropriate stages of learning
KF2: Creation of plan using information collected about performance
Devise practices for the appropriate stages of learning
Apply the principles of effective practice
Use training diary.

10. KF3: Reviewing & monitoring improvements
KF3: Reviewing & monitoring improvements made through relevant training program
Repeat general and focused schedules at appropriate times during the practice programme to allow progress to be measured.
Keep a training diary of relevant information. It will include what drills you completed on a day to day basis. Furthermore you will write down how you felt during practices, do you feel if your technique is improving.
